Neon Labs develops Neon EVM, an open-source platform that connects Ethereum and Solana. It allows Ethereum developers to deploy decentralized applications on Solana using the same programming languages and developer tooling they already use, without significant code changes. The aim is to combine Ethereum's developer ecosystem with Solana's throughput and liquidity.
The platform sits at the intersection of several technical domains: blockchain infrastructure, EVM compatibility, smart contracts, Ethereum–Solana interoperability and Web3. As open-source software, Neon EVM is developed in public, and its codebase addresses performance and scalability questions in the EVM ecosystem. The company's work targets developers building decentralised applications and participants in decentralised finance.
Neon Labs operates as a remote-first organisation, with employees free to work from wherever they choose. The company describes its culture in terms of freedom, autonomy and responsibility, and frames its work as tackling hard problems that affect the wider cryptocurrency space.
